Star Gathering UCC Conferences

06/09/2026

Every summer on Star Island something happens that’s worth capturing. The jumps off the dock. The sunsets. The friendships. The moments you wish you could bottle up and take home.
This summer — film it. The Star Gathering Video Contest is open to everyone. 60–90 seconds. Any style. Any story. Just make it Star.

You’ve been telling your friends about Star Island for years. Now there’s another reason for them to come.

Bring a new Shoaler to any Star Gathering conference this summer and you both get 10% off your room and board bill. That’s the 10/10 Bring a Friend program — because the island is better when you share it.

⭐️ We want to see you on island this summer! ⭐️ We don’t want the price of the Star Island experience to prevent people from coming to Star Island. We encourage people who are on the fence about coming to apply for a financial grant. The application deadline for Star Gathering 1 Family, Star Gathering 1 Youth, and Star Gathering 2 is April 15. The Star Gathering Family Weekend deadline is July 1. We look forward to seeing you on the porch this summer! ⭐️ 🌟 💫 https://starisland.org/programs/registration/ -grants

"Season’s Greetings, fellow Shoalers! As we approach the close of 2025, we are moving ever closer to reaching the Star Island Annual Fund finish line. Over the last couple of months Shoalers have been inspired to make new or additional gifts that have brought us to about 80% of this year's Annual Fund goal. If we all remember Star as we consider our end-of-year giving options, we can reach the top of the Chapel and help to ensure the preservation and advancement of our Spirit's Home. Please take the opportunity at www.starisland.org, and thank you!"

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to support the magic of Star Island. Your gift helps us care for this historic and inspiring place, from sustainable energy initiatives to the preservation of our beloved buildings and natural spaces.

Every donation, large or small, strengthens our community and ensures Star Island can continue welcoming generations to come. 💛
